Chapter 529: Lock in the Victory! (2nd Update)

Chapter 529: Lock in the Victory!

In the twenty-third minute of the game, Iniesta dribbled the ball and caused a foul on Gabi. Then they were awarded a free-kick in midfield.

The pace of the game slowed down, and Guardiola on the sidelines breathed a sigh of relief.

In his opinion, after taking a two-goal lead, Atletico Madrid will probably retreat back to defense. Although they had the same headache against Barcelona, it was better than the first 20 minutes when their defence seemed to be breached at any moment.

As long as Atletico Madrid's breath is relieved, Guardiola will be relieved.

But at this time, Guardiola also spotted Linson running over and whispering to Savor.

This is definitely a new indication from Gao Bo!!

Pep Guardiola immediately became vigilant.

He walked to the sidelines, and although he didn't know what kind of arrangement Gao Bo would make, one thing was right. That is, Barcelona must not be in a hurry now, they have to stabilize first.

It's not the end of the world to be two goals down, the game is still long, they have to control the tempo first, and when Atletico Madrid is led by the nose by Barcelona, that's when the team will look to score.

Contrary to media expectations, Pep Guardiola was pleased to get a draw at this stadium.

Now in the standings, they are still ahead of Atletico Madrid, and only Real Madrid is ahead of Barcelona.

There are more than a dozen rounds left in the league, which are enough for Barcelona to catch up with Real Madrid, and they have one more chance to go head-to-head with Real Madrid, at the Camp Nou. As long as they win against Real Madrid, Barcelona will not give any chance to the other pursuers!

Pep Guardiola has strong confidence in this.

......

Barcelona struggled and finally took a free-kick.

Xavi passed the ball straight back, and then Mascherano received the ball and distributed it to the feet of Alves on the wing, who was ready to take a few steps forward, but by this time Cork had already come up!

After a short period of recuperation, Atletico Madrid immediately got ready to play again!

Pep Guardiola had a look on his face that was exactly what he was.

Such a move was definitely carried out by the Atletico Madrid players after Gao Bo's instructions.

With a two-goal lead, the Chinese are not satisfied!

Pep Guardiola shook his head at the form of the pitch, and then he shouted Messi's name.

Since Atletico Madrid wants to speed up the tempo, Barcelona is not without a way to deal with it, they were previously made by Atletico Madrid's rapid successive blows and did not react, but now they still want to come to this one, Barcelona is not vegetarian, they are still the best team in the world!

After Messi came back to receive the ball, he directly led the ball and turned past Griezmann, who came up to press, and then did not pass the ball, it looked like he was going to take the ball and smash the yellow dragon by himself!

Atletico Madrid's defense did not dare to be careless, and Gabi and Mario Suarea came up and blocked Messi.

Messi didn't slow down, he picked up the ball on the run and picked it over Gabi's head.

Behind Gabi, it's Cesc Fabregas!

Guardiola's strikerless formation, the top one is Fabregas, of course, if Fabregas honestly stays in front, it is not called a strikerless formation, it should be called "let Fabregas play the 433 of the striker", but it is clear that Fabregas is in the forward position, but his style of play is still the style of midfield.

He had a lot of movement and this time he went straight back to midfield.

This is also the power of a striker-free midfielder, a midfielder who stands up front and can maneuver at any time. This can cause problems for any team's defensive marking.

The centre-backs don't dare to go too far, but Cesc Fabregas is unfettered.

Now that Cesc Fabregas has received the ball, Lucio, the centre-back who has stepped up to defend on top, can't let Cesc Fabregas pass the ball out anyway.

Because he was already in midfield, if Cesc Fabregas had passed the ball, he wouldn't have time to remedy the gaps in the back line.

Lucio immediately pulls people, tactical foul!

But Cesc Fabregas hooked the ball with his right foot to the left before he fell to the ground!

Sanchez gets the ball on the left!!

"Sanchez !!"

The narrator, Aduris, became excited.

At this time, Lucio had just knocked Fabregas to the ground, he was not in the defensive position of central defender, and in the position of central defender, Atletico Madrid was left with only Miranda!

Sanchez cuts inside with the ball!

Then suddenly the ball was passed to the ribs of the right side of the penalty area at the edge of the penalty area!

Messi has already reached this position at this time, and then directly volleys with his feet!

The soccer ball grabs the upright and goes out of the bottom line!! The startled Calderón stands exclaimed.

Many Atletico Madrid fans were scared out of a cold sweat.

Gao Bo is no exception.

Messi's ability is undoubted, he can create a threat no matter where he is, and the shot just now did not go in, which can only be said to be Atletico Madrid's luck.

Therefore, Gao Bo is even more determined to attack at home.

If you let the team come back to defend now...... It's absolutely unstoppable!

.......

Soon, Atletico Madrid, who got the ball back, also advanced through the half.

Unlike Barcelona's slow pace, Atletico Madrid's attack is very fast!

It only took two passes from the back to the front before it reached the feet of Griezmann.

Barcelona also launched a counter-attack on the spot, and after they failed to counter-attack, they retreated quickly.

When Griezmann got the ball, Barcelona's defense had retreated, and he didn't let the ball stay at his feet, but passed directly to Aguero, who came back to respond, and then pulled the right side to receive it.

Aguero got the ball with his back, and his Argentine compatriot was already close to him at the first time, Aguero couldn't turn around, he had to pass the ball back to Koke.

Koke moved the ball to the left without stopping, and Sandro came up!

Similar to other teams, Gao Bo is not aggressive in the use of full-backs.

When one full-back comes up to assist, the other full-back stays at the back.

It's like now, Sandro is up, Carvajal is not.

After Sandro received the ball, there were already three point-grabbers assembled in the Atletico Madrid penalty area.

Two strikers plus Mario Suarez!

Pep Guardiola's use of Mascherano at centre-back has not come without a price – Barcelona's ability to defend high balls has become weaker when Pique is not on the pitch.

Defending against high-altitude balls has always been Barcelona's weakness, so it is naturally impossible for Gao Bo not to make a fuss in this direction.

After Sandro took the ball, he looked at the position of his own point grabber in the penalty area, and then passed the ball directly and flew to the penalty area!

However, this time Barcelona's high-altitude ball defense was in place, and it was Busquez who came back to clear the ball after heading.

The ball fell to the right, just in time for Griezmann, who made a feint and then broke through Abidal from the inside.

Antoine Griezmann dribbled sideways all the way and finally when he got up to shoot, he was tripped by Andres Iniesta, who had returned to defence and both fell to the ground.

The referee hesitated, but blew the whistle and awarded a free kick to Atletico Madrid!

"Iniesta foul!! Atletico Madrid won a free-kick from a great position!! ”

The commentator roared loudly, and the Barcelona fans began to beat a little faster.

It's a really good position, right at the top of the penalty area, and it's a great place to shoot directly with both the left and right feet!

Valdés nervously arranged the human wall, but as the team with the lowest average height in La Liga, Barcelona actually couldn't put a high human wall.

Cesc Fabregas, Abidal, Sergio Busquets, Puyol and Sanchez formed the human wall.

Antoine Griezmann stood in front of the ball and the other players had already walked away.

"Antoine Griezmann is ready to take this free-kick!!"

Atletico Madrid fans also stood up, their eyes full of anticipation.

Antoine Griezmann stares at goal.

This is a good opportunity, and the wall of people in front of him seems to be ignored by him.

Inside the human wall, the Barcelona players are a little nervous, after all, the height of the human wall is really not too high, especially Puyol and Sanchez on both sides.

"Let's jump together later!"

Puyol covered his mouth and whispered to his teammates.

The tacit understanding of the jumping of the human wall is also a very important factor in defending free kicks.

The referee blew the whistle after both sides were ready.

Antoine Griezmann started to run, then picked up his left foot.

Just as Griezmann was about to touch the ball, Barcelona's human wall was already jumping!

However, when they jumped into the air, they found out .... This ball is a boccia!!

Valdés was completely deceived by Griezmann's free-kick this time, and by the time he saw the incoming goal, the ball had rolled into the net from the other end!

"Anthony Griezmann !!!!!"

“GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL!!!!!!!!!!!!”

Narrator Aduris shouted.

"In the first thirty-two minutes, Atletico Madrid was already two goals ahead!! The goal was scored by 20-year-old Antoine Griezmann! ”

In the stands, all the Atletico Madrid fans jumped up and took a three-goal lead, which was almost a goal that sealed the victory!
